maybe so - but if you're not a "car enthusiast" - you wouldn't even know what the hell you are looking at.. and you can't return it.. best you can do is sell it on EBay maybe - but if I were Tim, I would be looking out for a nice new one to show up on EBay.. oh look, right here in Cali... hummm..

Just stopping by on the way to the couch...stomach acting up a little, nothing a heating pad, a prescription pill and a nap won't fix. Got the timing set finally on the Fury, runs quiet and happier now. Also my a/c got 2 cans of R-12, nice and cold. For about 30 min that is until I hear a hissing coming from the evaporator.:BangHead: It lasted 46 years though.
 
Oh speaking of missing items, my bike is gone. No one locks their bikes here, if I have to buy another bike it will be locked! Still hoping I might see it around so I can steal it back...

I am usually pretty lucky...I got mugged once and as I was picking myself off the ground, a car stops, the guy jumps out and hands me back my wallet with $300 in it and apologizes and says please don't call the cops.

Temp is about the same here. I think the humidity is a little higher. Not terrible if your just out and about, but trying to work in it....

fudge that garbage! I repaired the bad wheel on our grill yesterday - on a scale of 1-10 it was barely a 2 - that's about as close to working in this heat as I want to get!

Yup when the police came, after I scared the convenience store people half to death walking in all bloody, and I told them about getting my wallet back, they didn't believe me at first. Maybe the mugger felt bad because he got me good and he really ambushed me, he and his buddies were just walking by and had no idea anyone was out to harm me.
 
the closest I have ever come to being a victim was when I was working at a "ma & pa" convenience store and these three kids came in acting all weird and suspicious.. I knew something was up (I just figured they were going to steal stuff) so I asked them all if I could help them. One of them starts toward me and says "yea man, this is a hold up, give us all the money!" -- I looked that punk square in the eye and told him that **** wasn't funny and that they had about 10 seconds to get the F out of the store before I took their stupid prank to the next level.. they ALL just about fell over themselves apologizing and begging me not to call the cops - they were so scared I thought they were going to piss in their pants!! ----- best part - I had no weapon.. maybe a nearby baseball bat, but that was it.. idiots.

chickenshit bastards - did they ever get caught?
 
I could tell those kids were just testing the water with me - if they had been serious about robbing the store, they would have just walked in and done it..

I don't know, probably not. I was so stunned having the wind knocked out of me and getting punched upside my forehead, I couldn't get the tag number. And I was far from home, Ft. Hood TX, what a sh**hole of a place that was.

I was selling encyclopedias. I actually liked the job for a while, I had my own system based on the cars in the driveway! I did win a week in Hawaii all expenses paid. And I liked being outdoors on my own without anyone tell me what to do.
 
Got jumped once.I was carrying a boom box. Blasted in the eye with a pair of sunglasses on blood went everywhere. Took 4 stitches below the eye. A half inch up would have been the eye. Let me go and ran when I started pulling a blade. There is no doubt what I would have done had I got hold of him.
